QuakeCon 2016 pre-registration dates for BYOC and general attendance announced

Be sure to mark your calendars if you plan on attending this year's QuakeCon.

Pre-registration details for QuakeCon 2016 have been announced.

For this year’s QuakeCon, Bethesda has streamlined online pre-registration for BYOC packages, which will be available in three stages, followed by pre-registration for general attendees.

Aside from being able to attend the show more quickly, there’s an additional incentive for those who pre-register as they’ll be able to build their own swag packages filled with exclusive QuakeCon merchandise. A limited quantity of these items will be available for purchase at the show floor for those who prefer to register on-site.

Here are the dates when you can pre-register for either BYOC or general attendance:

Round 4 | General Attendee Pre-Registration

Bethesda notes that while general attendance remains free, those wishing to participate in QuakeCon 2016 BYOC are required to pre-purchase one of the above packages through its online registration site in order to guarantee a spot. All BYOC Select-a-Seat packages are limited and all seats will be accounted for prior to the show. That means the show won’t have seats available on-site or on a first-come-first serve basis.

Once these packages sell out, Bethesda will give people the opportunity to win a limited number of BYOC seats via social media giveaways, contests, and via its event partners leading up to the show.

QuakeCon 2016 will run from Thursday, August 4 to Sunday, August 7, 2016 at The Hilton Anatole Hotel in Dallas, Texas.
